We're hiring! We're looking for a Writer and Narrative Designer to join the Fallen London team at a senior or mid level. This position is permanent, remote, and full time, which for us means 35 hours a week. #GamesJobs

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

In recent years, the media has quietly begun to change the way in which it writes about Bobby Kotick, the former CEO of Activision Blizzard. PMG investigates how Kotick used the threat of defamation to reshape his legacy in the games business, one article at a time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKwp...

I don't know why today is bisexual day. We all know that bisexuality first emerged on July 17, 1995.

My best friend asked for honest feedback on her cooking. I said that she needed more liquid in the sauce before putting it in the oven because it was too dry. My partner said it was weird that I gave such precise feedback. What does the internet hivemind think?

I need confirmation from people that have never lived in Asia. So I know that in Europe people don't squat when waiting around like people do in Asia, but I just saw a short that said like western people can't squat? Like if you did this it would be difficult/take effort/be uncomfortable.

Maybe it's Baader-Meinhof but like how many men have taken children and women up mountains to their deaths despite others telling them it's too dangerous to hike that day? Like pushing them to their deaths when they want to go home? Makes the dudes who leave their dates on mountains look kinda.

I love watching video essays on old games but frequently they comment that "journos are bad at games" like almost everyone says it at some point in the videos. Does it all come from that time Dean Takahashi played Cuphead? I don't know of any other meme about a journo being bad at games

I hadn't had periods for a while so I went to the doctor. After the exam he was just looking through some papers. I asked him if I was pregnant. He gave me a quizzical look as was just like "no, you're barren" and that's how I found out. Smile.

At this point do I just have to accept that people call the protagonist of Ico, Ico even though it's wrong? Kind of like how I've accepted people saying "hold down the fort" or pronouncing the t in often.

People write these things with their full pussy and think they've made a great point. I genuinely wonder if they talk to people like this in real life, and if those around them are concerned about their social media brain rot.
